Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and dice the tomatoes into small cubes. Peel and slice the onion thinly.

  2. 2

    Grate the Cheeses

    Using a grater, shred the Fontinella cheese and the Pecorino cheese into separate bowls.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Onions

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté until they become translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 4

    Add Tomatoes

  4. 6

    Lower the heat and add the grated Fontinella cheese to the skillet, stirring until melted and well combined. Then, sprinkle the Pecorino cheese on top and allow it to melt slightly.
